About This Book
Reach for this book when your child comes home from school feeling defeated by a series of small mishaps or a general sense that the world is against them. It is specifically designed for those days when a broken pencil or a missed bus feels like a catastrophe. The story follows a young boy through a morning where everything goes wrong, from oversleeping to getting wet in the rain, until a single moment of academic recognition shifts his entire perspective. This early reader uses simple, rhyming text to validate the frustration of a 'bad day' while modeling emotional resilience. It is a perfect choice for children aged 4 to 7 who are navigating the social and academic pressures of early elementary school. By reading this together, you can help your child see that while bad moods feel permanent in the moment, they are often just one positive interaction away from turning around.
